Land Rover Repair: should i buy a 2000 range rover with 111,000 miles on, service engine soon light, abs light


Question
i found this 2000 range rover with 1111,000miles on it. when i want to look at it the rear air suspension was siting on the ground but when i started it came back up. is that bad or should it do that,it was really cold out. then on the panel the ABS light was on but the guy said it would go off when driving, is that true. finally the service engine soon light was on, the guy said nothing is wrong the light has to be rest. The suv look like it's in great condition, it's clean in and out. but i don't know about the mileage on these car, and how long they would last.

Answer
Plan on $2,000 to convert the sagging suspension to coil springs, and $1,000 to fix the other lights.  If the price is in the ballpark including those costs, and if it passes an inspection otherwise, go for it.

The suggestion that "the light needs to be reset" is foolish.  Why would a car maker install a light that just needs resetting now and then?  To annoy people?  Of course not.  The light is on because there is a problem. In my cynical way, I suggest that the problem must be expensive, because if it were cheap, the seller would have fixed it and they wouldn't be telling you that story.
